Oh Mr Ted is not in bed
I think he's run away
or its a game without a name
he's made for us to play
Oh look a note pinned to my coat
It says I am a clue
Seek out the home of Mr gnome
he waits to talk to you
So down the stairs in one's and pairs
and slip my wellies on
then out the door and read once more
the clue marked number one
There just beyond the goldfish pond
the gnome awaits me so
He points the way as if to say
that ways the way to go
I rush on past going so fast
I nearly missed clue three
So slowed my pace to find the place
the clue was sending me
it said take time to read this rhyme
as I lend you a hand
the shadows tall upon the wall
Will show you were I stand
The sundial loomed where roses bloomed
the sunlight at its back
upon its face a note was placed
a picture of a sack
Toward the shed and Mr Ted
but no he was not there
another clue tucked in a shoe
that said make me a pear
The old pear tree yes there I see
another picture clue
back to the start and search your heart
to know what next to do
Back up to bed now what was said
my heart what does that mean
of course the box once filled with chocs
we ate on Halloween
Opened with care the clue is there
it says now come find me
I'm in my seat waiting to eat
as it is time for tea.
What fun I said hugging dear Ted
your games are just the best
I've had such fun but now I've won
and how I need to rest
So sitting there beside my bear
my eyelids felt like lead
I'm tired see please come with me
it's time we were in bed
Goodnight God bless we need our rest
It's been a busy day
and Ted and me are so sleepy
from games we love to play
